Thats it I'm done I have 45 posts 28 of which were done today and God help me if I ever decide to torture myself again by going on a 8 hour post a thon. I now need to do something completely mindless like nuke some commies in World in Conflict or listen to a democratic presidential debate to cool down my mind from overuse.

Jacob's Room

Interpretations of Chapter 1
I wrote my own opinion on the significance of the scene where Jacob is down by the beach and finds the skull.
Woolfe's Style
I argued that Woolf's Style is too disjointed for its own good.
The Strange Thing About Life
I wrote my own opinion that even if it was possible to write a road map of all human expirence that it still wouldn't be as wanted as the novels we have today that just reveal the small parts of it.
Chaos vrs Cosmo
Here I argued that the conflict between Chaos and Cosmo or order and Chaos is one of Woolf's ways of criticizing the culture of England before WWI.
is this a novel?
In this topic I argued that Jacob's Room was a novel and I used graphs to help justify my answer which said that the book had a plotline just not a tradtional one.

Ballads

What Makes a Ballad Great?
In this I described that there can't be just one thing that makes a ballad great because everyone has a different understanding of a great ballad.
The Ballad with music
In here I stated that the ballad goes so well with music because it is meant to be performed in front of an audience and music is one of the best ways to entertain the audience.
The Ballads Today
In here I argued of course the song has to be made to fit the ballad in order to get the greatest effect with the ballad but with the little time that we had to do the project most of us couldn't just make our own music to fit the ballad and so had to improvise in many creative ways.

Essays

http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Reading+versus+Hearing
In here I said that while certain things are meant to be read outloud the Essay on Criticism is not meant to be read out loud and any increase in the amount of meaning gained from it is more due to the skill of the reader than anything else.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Eager+Fools
In here I make a distinction between the fools that pope refers to that are rushing into a situation that people wouldn't go into and those who protect our country by putting their lives in danger.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/What+is+Nature%21%3F
In here I said that there were many flaws in trying to base the perfect poetry style and criticism of it on nature.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/But+What+About+Beauty%3F
In here I said that hard poetry should be the only poetry that is produced because the people who read it want the challenge and if you take the challenge away you would gain few new readers and make poetry worthless to the people who read it.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Really+An+Essay%3F
In here I argued that Pope's Essay on Criticism was both an essay and a poem.

As I Lay Dying

http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Filling+the+Gaps
In here I stated that Gas would approve of the inference that Dewey Dell was raped because the author made sure to drop hints about what had happened in the basement.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/True+Motive+for+Cash%27s+Obsession+Over+the+Coffin
In here I stated that Cash's attention to the coffin does show that he cares for his mother and is just his way of dealing with her death.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Continuation+of+Symptom
In here I state that the reason that Darl went insane was because he was the only one in the family that had no reason or no way to justify the crazy journey with the mother's corpse.
http://readings2.wikispaces.com/Significance+of+the+Horse
In here I argued that the horse represented Jewel's love and devotion to his mother.
